Since 1898, cars have been banned on Michigan's Mackinac Island. Locals still get around by bike, foot and horse drawn carriage, even the fire trucks are electric or animal powered.

Funny how when people are skint it’s always “let’s reduce tax on fuel” rather than “let’s reduce bus and train fares.”

Better Streets for Birmingham @betterstreetsforbirmingham.org · 19/04/2026
With the price of fuel going up by the week, change lanes to avoid the impact. Bus tickets are capped at £20 a week. Walking and cycling short trips is free. Fewer short car trips also means less congestion, more reliable public transport, safer and better roads, cleaner air, and healthier people.
Title: Change lane to escape the global energy crisis.

Car - £108 per week and rising fast. (Source: Average weekly cost of car ownership (IPPR, 2025)).

Bus - £20 per week (Contactless card weekly cap for National Express West Midlands).

Walking and cycling - Free.

Fewer short car trips also leads to less congestion, more reliable public transport, quicker journey times for all.

The rebranded Evening Standard, now weekly, is a pale imitation of the former paper. Main story about two nepo babies. Barely any news about London. Content taken from social media. More like a Sunday magazine than a newspaper. Everyone involved should be thoroughly ashamed.

This seems like a good time to remind people that everyone in politics and media knew very well that Johnson was a bent, disastrous imbecile and that he was made Tory leader *specifically because* he was the candidate the Mail, the Sun, the Times, the Telegraph and the Express would all get behind.

Have been thinking about “immigration has been tearing this country apart.” Surely I’m not the only person to think that it isn’t true, but inflamed rhetoric about immigration by politicians is what is tearing this country apart and so statements like that only makes it worse.
